279 [Bonus chapter] Facing Mind tribulation (I)
When Wang was still playing around with the spear, to check out the impact of attaining the mind world, he found himself standing inside his mind world.
In the beginning, he was about to get excited, but things changed, a unique power seemed to be covering the entire world. Then slowly, a figure with the same outfit as him appeared, except, he did not hold a spear at hand, rather bare-handed.
In this situation, tension was already rising for Wang, thus he asked, “Who are you? How are you here?”
This question was not asked with the intention to find out the answer, since he never expected to get a response, and even though the guy on the opposite side did not seem to release any killing intent, like him he seemed to have attained mind world. Everything could be hidden in the mind, even a trace of killing intent would not leak unless the figure desired it to be so.
In this case, it seemed not, and yet he could still feel a fatal threat. Even the spear he was holding at hand seemed to shake slightly before waving his arm forcefully stabilizing himself.
He then looked at the guy vigilantly, in case he attacked at any moment.
“Ooh careful, are we?” The figure motioned with his hand, and yet he did nothing but Wang reacted with the spear, ready to go at it anytime.
“How did you get here?” he figured that asking who the guy was would probably not end with a response. But in the end, he asked something that he hoped he could get an answer from. He could feel the entire mind world was covered up, or to say it had been reinforced by some formation, much better than even the world array he studied in the past.
“Ooh! Sneaky are we? Trying to confuse me as you look for a way out.” That was indeed his plan, but seeing the situation all around, his face collapsed. He was already aware that he could not escape this fight, and at the same time did not know the consequences of fighting inside the mind world.
.....
Right, he had forgotten an important issue, how did he get into the mind world with his physical body, and also how did he know that it was?
From the word go, he was asking what the opponent was doing in this place, but he seemed to have forgotten the most important issues.
“Ooh! Your mind has eventually started to work right.” The taunts from the guy did not seem to bother him, but he had started to have an inkling of what was happening.
Regardless of having some remote understanding, it did not seem to be that exciting at all, especially seeing how the guy was glancing at him from that high position.
When he was just about to make a complaint about not liking others looking over him with superiority, he heard a crack.
Boom!
His body was thrown several hundreds of kilometers before collapsing on the ground, with broken bones. Barely regaining his bearings, the energy concept kicked in and with all the cells active, everything returned to normal except for the thoughts of what had just transpired.
“How did he attack me? He did not even move his hands, and yet I am already injured.” This situation made him even more panicked but regardless of what his thoughts were, nothing could be done to remedy his situation.
Being hit before he could react was something he could live with, and say the opponent was strong, but the opponent was just standing there and he is suffering such a beating, is an embarrassment.
“Is this guy’s speed beyond even the reaction time of my senses? If that is the case, how should I deal with it, since with that kind of speed, I will find it hard to even touch him, not to mention even with his strength being the same or slightly lesser than mine, I will be decimated in a matter of time.”
He was trying to process his shock; he did not even realize the shockwaves that spread in directions even creating a huge ditch.
This was no different from the equivalent of an ant being slapped off to death, even the advantage of his eyes seemed to have some difficulty since he could not tell where the opponent would appear.
To slow down things in the line of vision, would actually require him to be able to meet with the attack in his line of sight too.
If this were in the real world, then several kilometers around would have been annihilated, including trees, and animals. This is because of the shockwaves and even his energy state could only let the energy pass through him.
His internal organs were also regenerating fast, from the advantages of an energy body. His cells were reconstructed over and over from energy, but a consciousness fused too. This process managed to accomplish the process of turning the cells not only into energy all over the body but also each having informationn recorded on them. Upon the body being destroyed, as long as energy was enough, it can be recreated, from the cells.
This cultivation system allowed him to accomplish this when he had even yet to accomplish the law state, in the realm of law state one still was absorbing energy and the body had yet to even reach a stage it could be considered half energy half mortal.
But in the stage the four strongest individuals that came to this primitive world attained including Star Pavilion leader or Axe gang boss, then it is half of both.
Wang has reached another level and perhaps with better control he can completely master his energy body.
In the same way, it proves useful in such fights since one can keep recovering unless the energy in the body is exhausted.
But he had no time to be confused since he managed to see a punch magnify in his eyes, due to the benefit of the mind world, but that was it. As much as it seemed indeed slowed down, his hands were slow to react, only barely saving his head from being crushed in the attack.
This attack did not just sever half his head, but rather most of his body felt the impact, with some shockwave-like impact it brought with it, which seemed to have the effect of disintegrating anything on its way.
In that way, had he not deflected part of that attack, this would have clearly been his end. Since that was the case, he moved his position several times, with a movement technique rather than be a sitting target.
Even though half of the body seemed to have survived and not been decimated, he was not happy, and the thing that he was most thankful for was that he had fused his soul, spirit, and intent to create a will that was attached to everywhere on his body.
In fact, it was only at this moment that he understands the real power of will, it helped withstand that attack, while passively counterattacking. This was the reason the crazy guy did not follow in with the attack to finish off the target.
“My flesh body seems to be far from the peak I can attain, and movement seems to be something I have ignored, but with the Neutron star, I could find a way if I survive this.” He could see that the opponent did not move without having a grasp on the new power that just pushed him to retreat.
What he was saying was not rational, at all, his flesh body had been strengthened to a very high level when he passed visualized the neutron star and if he wanted to get another great chance then he would have to improve the visualization close to twice.
In this way, the attack indeed had some damage to him but did not succeed in trying to destroy his soul along with the head. These attacks seemed to give him a lesson, and when dealing with enemies to be brutal and target points to aim for.
He had suffered all this from just a short confrontation, seeming as though they were fighting for an entire day, yet this was close to only two confrontations, he had with the guy.
In fact, it was not just the opponent’s speed, even his attacks were brutal and powerful. The second one especially seemed to have forced him to face it head-on. Escape was erased from all the means he could use, as it seemed as though was space constricting from all directions.
This guy was too strong and yet toying with him, but since he could see the attack on the second time, he just had to have his reaction time on point too.
“Let’s not focus on the opponent too much, but on myself. If my speed of improvement can outmatch the limit of attacks I can withstand, then this fight, I will have the last laugh.” With such a thought his eyes returned to calm.
